Chapter 542: Chapter 279: Slaying Divine Sword Sect Remnants

Two survivors of the Divine Sword Sect concealed their aura, disguising themselves as Foundation Establishment cultivators on sword flight.

"Heh heh, those wretched bitches of the Profound Sound Pavilion would never expect us to hide on their turf."

The middle-aged male cultivator sneered coldly, while the woman beside him, with a fake pill and a gloomy expression, weakly leaned on his shoulder.

"Hang in there, my dear. We will find a cave dwelling, and I’ll find a suitable body for you to possess."

"Mm." The female cultivator with a gloomy expression weakly nodded.

These years have been hard for them both, always fleeing after their discovery by the Profound Sound Pavilion.

Chased relentlessly, they could not find peace, and eventually hid on Five Dragons Island to escape the pursuit of the Profound Sound Pavilion.

But for three years, they lived cautiously, fearing discovery by the Profound Sound Pavilion.

Until they felt they had weathered the storm and ventured out to heal their injuries.

Her body was on the verge of collapse, requiring possession, hence she did not heal but waited outside.

"Look, there’s a young and suitable body right ahead."

This feeling of physical collapse and the primordial spirit leaving the body made her keenly aware of a sword-flying female cultivator in the distance, exuding a trace of sword intent.

"Not bad, this young girl has a hint of sword intent, seems a good candidate of a sword dao school, and causing an incident under the Profound Sound Pavilion’s jurisdiction would trouble them."

Cultivators of the Profound Sound Pavilion naturally dressed and bore sect characteristics.

The middle-aged Core Formation cultivator of the Divine Sword Sect glanced up and revealed a cruel smile.

In the past, finding such a good candidate, the Divine Sword Sect wouldn’t miss out.

But now, with the sect gone, they only wish to survive.

Only by surviving can there be hope to revive the sect.

And the female cultivator flying the sword in the distance was returning after delivering array flags to the Profound Sound Pavilion.

The Celestial Spirit Sword Body may be strong, and recently broke through to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, yet clearly stood no chance against the two Core Formation cultivators.

Seeing this, Lin Chang’an, following and hiding behind, was aroused with a murderous intent.

"The Sword Servant’s been targeted."

The Sword Servant was crucial to his path and cultivated for years.

How could he let anyone target him?

...

"Ling’er!"

At this moment, another streak of light appeared from afar, it was Lin Chang’an flying on a gourd with a disguise that lowered his aura to the peak Foundation Establishment level.

This shout made the Sword Servant’s snow-white neck turn pink, but with a cold, chubby face, she nodded solemnly, maneuvering her flying sword to turn.

"Cousin!"

Originally, when Lin Chang’an noticed the target instantly, he used a Sound Transmission Talisman to alert the Sword Servant, leading to the scene before them.

The two remnants of the Divine Sword Sect in the distance couldn’t help but reveal a sneer upon noticing the two.

"Didn’t expect them to be from the Four Seas Commerce Association."

The middle-aged Core Formation cultivator of the Divine Sword Sect hesitated seeing someone approach.

Though dealing with Foundation Establishment cultivators was easy, he wouldn’t want to risk it if they had strong backing.

Yet noticing they carried the Four Seas Commerce Association’s jade token eased his worries, instead smiled cruelly.

"Capturing these two would surely bother the Profound Sound Pavilion."

These two looked youthful, indicating not bad talent by cultivation alone, otherwise they wouldn’t be target for possession.

And the ongoing private conflict between the Four Seas Commerce Association and the Profound Sound Pavilion turned this background into a Life-Ending Talisman instead.

"Ling’er, we still need to visit Lin Array Master, let’s not get into trouble."

Lin Chang’an gently wrapped his arm around the Sword Servant’s slender waist, feigning affection, but covertly delivering messages.

Simultaneously, he dispatched a clone holding an array disc and flags to ambush ahead.

"Running into death voluntarily, there’s no longer need to notify the Profound Sound Pavilion."

Lin Chang’an coldly laughed inside, if facing them alone, he’d naturally not risk it.

But now, circumstances changed, drawing them into his ambush with the array would give him confidence.

"Cousin."

In this moment, the Sword Servant calmed down, secretly readying for battle.

In recent years, the Sword Servant changed significantly; switching to the Evil Essence Sword Formulas altered her mana aura, hence wasn’t recognized initially.

Just as the pair intended heading towards Celestial Spring Peak, a sword aura suddenly attacked from behind.

"Not good!"

Under the terrifying strike of a Core Formation cultivator, a Foundation Establishment cultivator had no time to react, but the top-grade defensive spiritual artifact shone brilliantly at the crucial moment, blocking the hit.

"Core Formation cultivator!"

The disguised Lin Chang’an looked terrified, watching his top-grade defensive spiritual artifact’s spiritual light dim to near breaking after one more strike. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Esteemed elder, I am from the Four Seas Commerce Association, there might be a misunderstanding with you."

Decisively, Lin Chang’an fled with the Sword Servant in haste, yet warned the opponent.

However, seeing their top-grade spiritual artifact blocking the strike, the two Divine Sword Sect remnants instead grinned cruelly.

"We of the Profound Sound Pavilion will kill Four Seas Commerce Association’s people; blame your association’s excessive actions all these years!"

The pair harbored immense hatred toward the Profound Sound Pavilion too.

In Yue Kingdom, the Three Major Sects had long feuded.
